Description

Rosa floribunda 

Friesia Rose is an upright growing, compact bush with large amounts of double flowers with a strong fragrance and showy bright yellow colour. Available in many different variations. 8"/20cm pot - Bush form

Casuarina glauca 

Cousin It is so named because of its full, cascading growing habit, resembling "Cousin It" from the old television show, "The Adam's Family!".  It is an extremely tough Australian Native groundcover which grows over anything in its way, and looks especially interesting planted over uneven areas, giving it a different look to anything else you ever could plant.  It is drought hardy and can also tolerate light frost and semi-damp areas and is happy in full sun through to part shade.

It will only grow to 30cm but has a spread of approx. 1.5m and is useful for weed suppression.  "Cousin It" would also look fabulous, planted in retaining walls, in pots and over rocks.  An unusual and intriguing plant.

ContentRoses are easily one of the most popular and widely cultivated groups of flowering plants. Numerous different cultivars have been produced over the last two centuries although roses have been grown for millennia before their popularity bloomed. Renown for their flowers and beauty they are also loved for other reasons such as their fruit, the rose hip which can be made into an old fashioned jam or for garden uses such as ground covers and hedging. Roses range in size and variety from your standard and bush roses right up there with your climbers and weeping varieties, amongst all their beautiful colour, variety and hardy nature there is bound to be the perfect rose out there for your garden.

Great for rockeries or spilling down embankments and over the side of pots, and will flow over rocks and hillocks creating spectacular effects. A very easy care plant that does well in a wide range of soil types, and from cold temperate to subtropical areas. The dense foliage will deter weed growth, adding to the low maintenance aspect. Can take some salt, so is good for coastal gardens. Tolerant of dry spells once established, frost tolerant. Heavy frost may brown the top foliage, but new growth will shoot away in spring.
